When I ask a guy for something, I may get Yes as an answer half the time and No half the time. Yes mostly means Yes and No means No. If the answer is "Let me think about it", that means usually that within 24 hours or so I will get a definitve Yes or No answer.
If I ask a woman for something, I…
Huh. I'd been wondering why I've been getting so much complaining email lately, defending Pensacola Christian College.
Pz Myers,
I'm A Christian. I came across your blog when searching for PCC in Pensacola FL. This web site was the first on the list. I of course disagree with you, but I do know…
There is this food meme going around everywhere, so I checked out what Chad, Archy, Mark CC and Rev. BigDumbChimp picked. I have to admit I had to use Google for a lot of these, often realizing that I have, indeed, tasted some of these but under a different name. Different people do it differently…
I compliment Sen. James Webb on his post-State of the Union speech, and he goes and votes against Sen. Dodd's amendment to require Congressional approval to increase troop numbers in Iraq. Also voting in surprising fashion were Democrats Casey, Cardin, and Nelson. Republican senator Hagel showed…
Totally off topic, but has anyone recieved their Focus on the Family books yet? Its been longer than the shipping period, but I've recieved nothing. Was it too good to be true?
Haven't received mine either... I would give it, as they say, 4 to 6 weeks.
A pirate walks into a bar. The barkeeper is surprised to see a large ship's wheel shoved down his britches. "Do you know you've got a steering wheel in your trousers, sir?" he enquires.
"Yarr," says the pirate, "it's driving me nuts".
I believe this provides a further data point in favour of your assertion.
A quick trip to Google was disappointing ... I didn't see any geologists with a "Pyrates of the Caribbean" page. (Lots of links to the movie, misspelled, but no rocks.)
Oops, didn't think of the other (and probably proper) spelling ...
So now, I find things like Pyrites of the Caribbean: (USA, 2003) Johnny Depp is dissapointed to discover that Blackbeard's treasure is actually Iron Disulfide. ...
Some Piratical fun from the animation side of things.

A: Because it was rated aarrrghh...
The New Yorker had one years ago. In the cartoon, there's a classroom full of small children, and one pirate. The teacher says, "OK class, pi is equal to what squared? Bluebeard, you might know this one."
Sophisticated.
There's always the venerable and widely linked "Pirate Riddles for Sophisticates."
Perhaps we could try to work "Sudo shiver me timbers" into the pirate-joke ouvre. You know, 'cause that sudo joke is so funny and all.
Younger offspring was frolicking about the house pretending to be a dog the other day. "Arf! Arf!"
Mid-frolic, younger offspring picked up a toy hand-hook that had been left on the couch by elder offspring, and switched seemlessly to, "ARRRf! ARRRf!"
They start young, these scurvy dogs.

Focus on the Family"
Um...I liked the idea of the joke, but π ≠ r2
Should be r^2 (sup tag didn't work).

plunge- I had to ask them where my stuff was. And I placed it the day after it was posted here, IIRC.
Darn- we broke FotF!
Darn. It was too good to be true: free copies of books I want to read but would never pay money for.
Are any of these pirates married to a woman named Peggy?
When Peggy takes of her prosthesis, she answers to Eileen.
William Penn had a hard time finding a way to market his aunt's pies because they cost so much to make, the prices had to be outrageous in order to turn a profit. In fact, it got so bad that the big scandal of the day was the Pie Rates of Penn's Aunts.

Um...I liked the idea of the joke, but Ï â r2

"Let me also assure you that we have stopped the shipment of the items you selected. "
As always, too god to be true.
I have never understood how the fashionable pirate should accessorize.
A pARRRot or a pARRRakeet?
Torbjörn, that is the single best Swedish-English pun I have ever seen :).
